Who are the most underrated authors?

answers1:John Green and Marcus Zusack are fantastic young adult
authors. They just don't get the credit for their novels like some
others do. I think it's unfortunate that authors like Stephenie Meyer
get so much money for their books when their are more than enough
authors that deserve the money but do not receive it. It's sad. Agreed
^ Scott Westerfeld is wonderful, as well....Show more
answers2:Jim Butcher
answers3:David Lubar, author of "Hidden Talents" and "True
Talents"Eoin Colfer, author of the Artemis Fowl series, "Half Moon
Investigations", and more.
answers4:Me, of course :)More seriously, I think Scott Westerfeld's
Uglies series is genuinely great. That'll be the YA series remembered
from this decade, not Twilight.For slightly older books, I love
Barbara Hambly's fantasy novels, and yet she's one of the few authors
out there who has zero fanfic written for her work....Show more
